If the mere sight
Would blind you
Then you better not stare
If you want me
To cater to your dreams
Then you're gonna have to learn fast that I don't care
Well you wanna go to Heaven
But maybe another day
If you wanna be offended
Then you'll go the other Way
Stick with me, baby
And I'll cut you down to size
You tell me that you love me
But you can't even look in my eyes
If the first touch
Would kill you
Then don't reach out your hand
If you want me
To grant your every wish
I'll tell you now that my request is your demand
You say I'm gonna burn in Hell
And still you call me every day
Say I gotta come to see you
Now you wanna try it this way
You say God's watching over
Well I don't believe it's so
If you wanna be offended
I'll tell you where your God can go
If the mere taste
Would torture
Then you better not start again
If you want me
To move the Earth for you
Then you better shut off the light before you say "Amen"
If the mere sight
Would blind you
Then you'd better not look my way
If you want me
To leave you wanting more
Then you have to stop believing all the things you say
And you better not preach against me cuz I act this way
You better believe me
You better believe me
You know I'm right
You know I'm right
